but this is a new level of entitlement. Notice in the caption text – he doesn’t say “I don’t get to play lately” – just not quite that often.

You dirty, dirty spill! messing with Oprecious’s game!

The video is here

You will enjoy the opening sequence with the ball with the presidential seal on it and Oprecious name on it.

But it was that particular line

these days I play once about two or three weeks

that made an impression on me – why with the 38 days since an ecological disaster is unfolding.

Reminds me of W cutting on sweets as his war effort. But in light of his renewed – today – pledge of not resting till the oil-kill is stopped, this interview taken yesterday a way even more arrogant and clueless.

And golf. Somewhere I read that the disaster hasn’t stopped his golf game either. Interviews with sportscasters, a lavish State Dinner with a super-duper lazer light show for the dance party on the south lawn, 2 trips to CA, and he even managed to spare some time to have the gray washed out of his hair too! Presidenting is hard wurk, but at least he has the presidential seal to keep him warm.

The spin:

President Obama to Cancel Offshore Drilling Projects; “The President’s Eyes Have Been Opened” About the Risks

Totally tone-deaf. But the self-indulgent snob has always gotten away with it, maybe his response to this catastrophe will finally change that. I hope.

Second question—>Tapper wants to know why he didn’t send in the super tankers to suck up the oil. He’s floundering, no real answer. “They might have been redundant, mistakes were made, blah, blah, blah.”

I doubt it cj, and believe that he/his handlers will make quite sure that he doesn’t “commit” until the “leak” has been stopped and the well shut down for sure. Then, and only then, will he take and get credit for succesfully solving the problem!

If the “top kill” works out, his visit tomorrow could be turned in to look like a triumphant victory lap!
